DEGEN, ESTES & CO,,

Did you ever hear of Chicken Little, hew she

disturbed a whole neighborhood by her foolish

alarm?

Well, Chicken Little was running about in a
gentleman's garden, where she had no business to
be : she ran under a rose-bush, and a leaf fell on her
tail ; so she was dreadfully frightened, and ran away
to Hen Pen.

" O Hen Pen," said she, " the sky is falling ! "
u Why, Chicken Little, how do you know it ? "
" O, I heard it with my ears, I saw it with my eyes,
and part of it fell on my tail." " Come, then," says

Hen Pen, " let us run as fast as we can."

So they ran till they came to Duck Luck. " O
Duck Luck," says Hen Pen, " the sky is falling ! "
" Why, how do you know it ? " says Duck Luck.
14 Chicken Little told me." " Chicken Little, how
do you know it ? " "I heard it with my ears, I
saw it with my eyes, and part of it feD on my tail "
" O, let us run ! " says Duck Luck.

And they went on till they came to Goose Loose.
" O Goose Loose ! " says Duck Luck, " the sky is
falling." " Why, Duck Luck," says Goose Loose,
" how do you know it ? " Says Duck Luck, " Hen
Pen told me." " Hen Pen, how do you know it ? "
" Chicken Little told me." " Chicken Little, how
do you know it ? " " O, I heard it with my ears, I
saw it with my eyes, and part of it fell on my tail ! "
u Run, run ! as fast as you can," says Goose Loose*
And away they went till they came to

Turkey Lurkey. " O Turkey Lurkey ! " says
Goose Loose, " the sky is falling ! " " Why," says
Turkey Lurkey, " Goose Loose, how do you know
it ? " Says Goose Loose, " Duck Luck told me."
" Duck Luck, how do you know it ? " Says Duck
Luck, " Hen Pen told me." " Hen Pen, how do
you know it ? " Says Hen Pen, " Chicken Little
told me." " Chicken Little, how do you know it ? "
" How can I help knowing it ? " says Chicken Lit-
tle; "I heard it with my ears, I saw it with my eyes,
and part of it fell on my tail ! " " O, come, let us

went till they met with

Fox Lox opened the door, and in went Turkey
Lurkey. As she went in, Fox Lox bit off her
head, threw it one way, and the body another.
Then went in Goose Loose. Fox Lox cut off her
head, and threw her in. Then came Duck Luck.
Fox Lox did the same by her. Then came Hen
Pen. Fox Lox bit off her head, and threw it one
way, and the body the other. Then came Chicken
Little. Fox Lox caught hold of her, and eat her
all up, and then finished his supper with the rest, —
and all this from the foolish fright of Chicken
Little.
